For those not getting the meme, mosasaurs and other marine reptiles were the dominant aquatic animals during the Mesozoic, going extinct alongside dinosaurs and other reptiles at the end of the Cretaceous. Had not been for their disappearance, seals and other aquatic mammals of today such as whales wouldn't exist, as with marine reptiles around they wouldn't haven gotten the sea free of competition to adapt to such enviroment, this is a little silly meme thanking mosasaurs for their sacrifice so we can have our favorite sea chonkers in the present.

Meme was made by me, it's kinda low effort, but I hope you like it.

Recently I rewatched the episodes of the anime where Allen gets his Crown Clown and the thing with the name of the Akuma who appears during this arc has always weirded me out. If some of you have ever checked the D.Gray-man wiki, you will know this Akuma is known as "Thread", with the wiki even saying it's a name the anime gave him.

However, as far as I know, this Akuma has always been unnamed. Neither in the manga, anime or extra material like databooks his name has ever being stated. He has always been referred as just a "Level 3 Akuma" without any other name, even in the anime the credits just refer to him as such, and there's an episode of the D.Gray-theater where the show outright makes fun of the Akuma because he doesn't has a name.

Saying that, I want to ask if anyone knows the source of name "Thread" for this fellow and is it's an official name from some obscure source or is just a name fans invented to make him more identifiable. Sorry if this post comes as random, but it's something I have thought for a while and if someone is more informed than me I would like to know it.

Just a fun comparisson image to some of my favorite prehistoric animals ever, the mosasaurs, the greatest of lizards. The biggest Tylosaurus proriger was recently reassigned to Tylosaurus rex, Cindy_Joli admitted that was a slip up and will fix it in the future, so don't mind that.

For those who don't know, Lacey Games are horror videos in the shape of old cutesy flash games who put the main protagonist Lacey into all kind of horrifying situations (DO NOT check them if you're sensible to stuff like these), but I always noticed how the main character kinda looks like Lenalee with her current appearance with small pigtails and green hair, and in fact I thought at first Lacey was a fanart of Lenalee when I learned about the existence of those videos. While I don't think Lacey is inspired in Lenalee I noticed the similarities and wanted to share them here.

After Surviving Earth's brief but memorable Cymbospondylus moment I wanted to post something Cymbospondylus-related since it's a pretty underrated animal and deserves more attention. This art here of two of these early ichthyosaurs hunting a group of Tanystropheus resting on a small, shallow rock surrounded by water really called my attention and it was really cool, so I decided to share it here with you all.

If there was a perfect seal I think it would be her, look at her for God's sake.

Just a crossover of my two favorite shonen ever made, Bleach and D.Gray-man. Starring Allen as Ichigo, Kanda as Byakuya, Lenalee as Rukia and Lavi as Renji (ft. Timcanpy as Kon).

You don't know how seeing happy this made me, so I'm sharing this with you all.
